No back arrow anymore meaning I have to hit the autosport logo and racing comments again after scrolling all the way to the top. On mobile version. Anyone else have this?

Me too. Together with the like button not showing.
I mean, it is there. I know where it is, and when I click the area it works. The buttons just ain't there (or the logo)

Yep, I have the same issue. The buttons still work, but the visuals aren’t there. They only appear on the ‘main’ forum screen. (Mobile). The menu ‘3 lines’ button on the top right also has the same issue.

Have the same issue. Notification logos not there much of the time either. Slowly becoming unusable.

For me the ‘like’ buttons started disappearing occasionally a couple of months ago. Then their disappearance became more regular. Now I hardly ever see them. The same thing has started happening with the ‘three white lines’ menu button as mentioned above by FirstnameLastname. I assume that in the fullness of time that will vanish completely as well.

Ugh, problem still persists, regardless of browser. Now I have another quite irritating issue - when I enter the forum on my phone I get the web version, so I have to choose the mobile one, but then when I go on my desktop it's on mobile design, so then I have to choose full version.
Up until 2 days ago this happened automagically and I didn't have to bother with it at all...

Same problem, can't back out to the forum menu, have to scroll back through the pages or change to full site.

I first noticed this when they went to ‘https’ only for images. Those buttons have yet to reappear since then.

They are still there, just not showing up. Click where you remember the button to be and it’ll function correctly

Yes, ‘click’able but no visual on iOS12 iPhone XS Max, sure it was fine on 7plus.

Our developers are looking into why so much of the iconography has gone missing on the mobile view.
It's quite an odd situation - it's definitely to do with the mobile theme on the forums rather than the mobile browsers themselves.
I'll update you once I know more...

Good news - our developers have finally tracked down the rogue bit of code that was causing this!
The back arrow, the menu icon and all of the graphics in the menu should now be back. As should various other custom bits of imagery.
Let me know if you're still seeing any problems...

All appears to have returned to normal on iOS 12.1 on both an iPhone or an iPad. Thank you guys!

Looking good so far. I’d - like - almost forgotten what a ‘like’ button looked like, like.

Hate to revisit this, but although both arrows now show, the bottom one doesn't seem to work any more... The top one is fine, I can click on it and it will take me back.

This is happening because of the new ad format which we're trying out - our developers are working on a solution!

Can you not get some developers that actually test things before putting them live?

No idea if it's related, but on mobile I accidentally deleted a post of mine. Didn't get a "are you sure?" message. I thought I hit the quote button (yes I like quoting myself), but it was the delete button. Post gone.
